Her writing and graphics are amazing, don't get me wrong. But one thing I dislike in her vns is the way it kind of forces you to corrupt the girl. She can't just have a normal health relationship, she can't be the boss of her life. This is what I feel most of the time when I play Lena. There was a game I used to play before they started remaking it, The female character had total control if she wanted to be corrupted if she enjoyed to give in control or just control her own sex life and job etc. I think we need something like that other then the woman having to submit to males everytime if they want to succeed.
Ummm... you don't have to corrupt her lol. It's obviously a shortcut to financial stability if she sells herself, but that's up to you. If you do corrupt her, you have complete control over how much she is ok with the situation. She can be very enthusiastic about the Seymour deal. She is the one pursuing Jeremy and Mike. Robert is a simp for her. She doesn't want to get over Axel. Her Skullfap is something she enjoys. Where does she lose control?
For Seymour and Axel, she also has the routes where she is less comfortable to appeal to the people that want a more exploitative dynamic.
And she CAN have a normal healthy relationship with Ian and reject all the slimy assholes. I'm sorry that she doesn't win a lottery in this route and become a multi-platinum artist overnight.
You want some "made for women" type of story about feminism and female empowerment? Regardless of whether Eva is a woman or not, the predominant audience for porn games is male. Successful games are gonna appeal to the male audience. And the majority (obviously not all) of the male audience wants to see a female protag corrupted in a female protag game. Of course, this game has a dual protag and expands the potential audience to the more self insert male MC type of players, but there is no reason Eva would completely abandon what worked in GGGB.
The fact is, this is a game where each MC has a bunch of potential partners. If you don't like some (or all) of the potential partners, the game isn't a perfect fit for you. Others enjoy the offered options. I don't know why people always fail to understand the basic concept that you can't have unlimited routes in games unless the dev can work on the game for 200 years in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber or something.
